The Perfect Peanut Butter Sandwich


Making the perfect peanut butter sandwich is definitely based on personal preference. Do you completely cover one slice of bread from corner to corner with a thick layer of peanut butter? Do you prefer using jelly or fluff with peanut butter or just peanut butter? I have had the experience of having a peanut butter sandwich with too much peanut butter. It made the roof of my mouth stick to my tongue and it was not a pleasant experience. My favorite way to make a peanut sandwich is to toast two slices of bread lightly and then directly after popping up from the toaster smear a little peanut butter on each side. The peanut butter melts onto the bread and is still warm if you eat it right away while the bread has a crunch (with a big glass of chocolate milk!) It is the best. The crunchy vs. creamy debate is a whole other issue and will need further investigation.

My favorite way to make a PB&J is to cover 1 slice of bread with peanut butter- not too much, but not too little. Then I put some jelly on top and cut it into triangles. BUT my favorite way to enjoy peanut butter is peanut butter toast with a glass of milk. I don't like when the peanut butter melts though so I have to let the toast cool before I put it on. Spoonfuls of peanut butter are also delicious when eaten slowly.
